Live: Yellow River's annual sediment flushing underway at Xiaolangdi Dam in central China's Henan

The outflow from the Xiaolangdi Dam in central China's Henan Province has transitioned from clear to turbid, marking the commencement of the 2025 Yellow River pre-flood water and sediment regulation phase, which involves sediment flushing. This phase is expected to last until July 9, with over 100 million tonnes of sediment discharged. How does the Xiaolangdi Dam flush out the accumulated sediment from the reservoir? After the sediment discharge concludes, what additional work will need to be done? Join CGTN's livestream as we take you to the site for an on-the-ground look!
